Our half day mountain rides are for canter-riders only, the rides go up into the hills to enjoy the rugged terrain of the open mountain. With the Snowdon range on one side and the Irish Sea on the other, this is a unique experience and how better than from the back of a horse – it’s a different world!
The mountain rides are a 3 hour experience, the route taken offers a canter for experienced riders and limited gallops are available subject to the terrain being suitable.
Children and adults need to be able to hack out on open ground and canter independently to take part in this ride.
Price: £85.00 (per person).

Customer Comments
We visited the snowdonia riding stables for a 30th birthday surprise. From start to finish the staff were friendly and knowledgeable. After a quick assessment of each rider they match you with adequate horse somehow they managed to pair up each rider with a horse that matched their personality trait. The ride up the mountain was incredible with some amazing views. We couldn't ask for anything more. Thank you

It was an amazing experience the guides were fantastic and so friendly, I fell in love with Charlie as he looked after me so well and definitely want to take him home with me. I will definitely be back next year and possibly every year after that. Thank you so much
